If it is, how do (or should) I treat it? It's on a Valley lemon tree. |

 Its a lichen. You must be in a high humidity area and that is the shady side of the tree. It won't hurt the tree - I always thought getting lichen growing on your trees was very cool. Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming...."WOW What a Ride!!" -Mark Frost Webmaster: osnnv.org |

| Lichens are fascinating and completely harmless. They're said to be an indicator of clean air. Love them. |
